Page played Stacey in the popular comedy, which was penned by Ruth Jones and James Cordon and which ran for three series, accompanied by a Christmas special.

And although fans had been hoping for another series of Gavin & Stacey – or indeed another one-off Christmas episode – it now looks as though they won’t be in luck, with Page confirming that there are no plans for more installments.

‘There definitely isn’t going to be anymore, well not that I know of,’ the actress told Mail Online.

‘The best people to ask are James and Ruth, but as far as I’m concerned when we finished the third series, it definitely was it.

‘We knew that we were finishing, we didn’t think that there was going to be any more, no more series and no more Christmas special or anything so when we ended that was it.’In July, Cordon appeared to indicate that he wanted to write with Ruth again, but it was unclear whether he meant he wanted to make more Gavin & Stacey, or work on new material entirely.

‘It’s a great show, writing with Ruth is a gift,’ he said. ‘I definitely plan on doing more.’

Jones – who played Nessa in the BBC show – has previously said she would like to write some specials featuring the characters, and has also hinted at the possibility of a musical.
